A group of students wants to determine the internal resistance of a battery. They connect the battery to a variable resistor. Th

e students measure the potenial differnce across the battery as a function of the current throught the battery as they vary the resistance. Which of the following analyses of the data could be used to determine the internal resistance of the battery?
A. Divide the potential difference across the battery by the current through it for each data point. The average of these calculations gives the internal resistance of the battery.
B. Graph the potential difference across the battery as a function of the current through it. Extrapolate to find the y- intercept and divide this by the average of the current measurements to find the internal resistance of the battery.
C. Find the best-fit straight line for a graph of potential difference across the battery as a function of the current through it. The absolute value of the slope represents the internal resistance of the battery.
D. This data cannot be analyzed to give the internal resistance of the battery, because the potential difference across the battery does not depend on the current.

Answer:

The answer is "Option C"

Explanation:

Ohm's Rule we remember V = I\times R

It looks like the sample is drawn y=mx while m is curve slope

The slope of the graph is its resistance if they draw a graph v vs I.

However, the internal battery presence resistance can be modified as the straight line equation

y = mx -c

where c is y-intercept:

E = I(R+r) \\\\ E = IR+ Ir\\\\E = V + Ir\\\\V = E- Ir\\\\V = -Ir+E

R is really the internal battery resistance to draw graph V vs I, the slope is internal resistance to the negative slope cure.

3. Consider a locomotive and the rest of a freight train to be a single object. Suppose the locomotive is pulling the train up a
34kurt

Answer:

The friction force and the x component for the weight should be the reaction forces that are opposite and equal to the action force, which causes the locomotive to move up the hill if the velocity of the locomotive remains constant.  

Explanation:

<u>When the locomotive starts to pull the train up, appears two reaction forces opposed to the action force in the direction of the move. </u>

The first one is due to the friction between the wheels and the ground, it will be the friction force (Fr):

Fr = μ*Pₓ =μmg*sin(φ)        

<em>where μ: friction dynamic coefficient, Pₓ: is the weight component in the x-axis, m: total mass = train's mass + locomotive's mass, g: gravity, and sin(φ): is the angle respect to the x-axis.</em>              

And the second one is the x component for the weight (Wₓ):

Wₓ = mg*cos(φ)  

<em>where cos(φ): is the angle respect to the y-axis.    </em>

<em> </em>

These two forces should be the same as the action force, which causes the locomotive to move up the hill if the velocity of the locomotive remains constant.

Consider two uniform solid spheres where one has twice the mass and twice the diameter of the other. The ratio of the larger mom
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

The ratio of moment of inertia of larger sphere to that of smaller sphere = 4

Explanation:

The moment of inertia of solid sphere is given by I = 2/5MR² where M = mass of sphere and R = radius of sphere.

Radius of smaller sphere = D/2

Radius of larger sphere = 2D/2 = D.

Moment of inertia of smaller sphere I₁ = 2/5M × D²/4 = MD²/10

Moment of inertia of larger sphere I₂ = 2/5M × D² = 2MD²/5

The ratio of moment of inertia of larger sphere to that of smaller sphere = I₂/I₁ = 2MD²/5 ÷ MD²/10 = 10 × 2/5 = 4
